- Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge: I will continue learning, I want to become a vet.
- Jane Obinchu: [laughing] A vet? Maruge, you'll be almost 100 years old.
- Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge: I will never stop learning until I have soil in my ears.
- Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge: Do you think I'm too old to learn?
- Jane Obinchu: My father had a saying. He was not an educated man, he was a fisherman, but he said 'you never stop learning until you have soil in your ears'.
- Jane Obinchu: [addressing her 200 students on her last day] My mother never went to school, and she said to me, 'You must love education, so that you can do better than me'. I am your mother and I am telling you, you must love education, so that you can do better than me, better than all of the teachers.
- Jane Obinchu: Mmzee, why does someone as old as yourself want to go to school?
- Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge: I want to learn to read.
- Jane Obinchu: Mmzee, they meant for children, not adults.
- Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge: No, I heard it on the radio, with my own ears, they said 'everybody'.
